With just over one month of the year left to go, the 2025 Scot Goes Pop fundraiser is still short of its target figure. If you'd like to help keep the lights on during the several months it will take me to find out whether an alternative funding model is viable (realistically it could be a wait of around four months or more), card donations are welcome HERE. Or, if you prefer, direct donations can be made via PayPal. My PayPal email address is: jkellysta@yahoo.co.uk
Many thanks to everyone who has donated so far.
The party, Change UK is analogous to no other entity. Although it’s presumptive purpose was related to Brexit, it’s real focus was to undermine Jeremy Corbyn through the campaign of false accusations of anti-Semitism (which was at its fevered height at the time). Now that arch Zionist, Starmer is in charge, the odious Luciana Berger, and others have been welcomed back into Labour Party ranks. A decidedly odd move considering their supposed attempt to destroy the party.
ReplyDeleteWas that the spin-off for Labour ladies and gentlemen who were to Grand for the Labour Party? Kind of like the 1980s' SDP? For those who don't want to mingle with the lower orders but want to be known as nice.
DeleteOpinium, Westminster voting intention, field work 26 - 28 Nov.
ReplyDeleteUK headlines: RefUK 10% lead, -3% week on week, Labour +2% from last week.
Scottish sub-sample (126)
Con 11%, Lab 18%, LibDem 7%, SNP 32%, RefUK 22%, Green 9%.
Labour’s budget hasn’t gone down too badly it would seem.
22% of the Scottish electorate are plain daft ?
Deletewith another mandate, westminsters position will be untenable
ReplyDeleteyachts all round
I must admit John Swinney would look pretty swanky in a yachtsman's hat.
DeleteHardly astonishing that pollsters have so far refrained from offering up Your Party as a specific option. The utterly chaotic entity appears to be imploding as we speak. Activists from the Socialist Worker’s Party have been expelled (a wise move in my opinion), but rumours of other entryist, vanguardist factions abound. My money’s on Militant Tendency pulling the strings from behind the scenes. Although they’ve been out of the headlines for decades, they never quite disappeared. Expect more People’s Front of Judea, v’s Judean People’s Front, nonsense, ad nauseam.
ReplyDeleteStrange thing with the far left wing as how they also make a mess of any organisation- blame everyone else and move to Catalonia!
ReplyDeleteOr in a Scottish context ISP versus NSP versus Liberate Scotland versus Alba.
ReplyDeleteSo as a Scot speaking Scots I am now official! Who said I wasn’t? Good news for Gaelic speakers too. Of course if I was in Ireland Scots was already recognised as well as Gaelic (Irish). We should await individuals complaining that they got lost in Argyle Street or should it be Argyll ?
ReplyDeleteI saw a roadsign with words on it I didn't know and became so upset I crashed into a tree. What if I was an emergency midwife rushing to a home birth? I blame Nicola Sturgeon.
DeleteWho needs Robert the Bruce when you've got Lloyd Quinan?
ReplyDeletePhil Boswell will save Scotland.
DeleteSo will Celine Gottwald and Dolores Inverarity. Buaidh no bàs!
DeleteTruly amazing that the SNP, after almost two decades in power, are still streets ahead of any other political party with public support and popularity.
ReplyDeleteWhether some naysayers on here like it or not, that enduring popularity, which has yet again bounced back after a pretty torrid time over the last few years, is very well deserved as they are the only party which consistently puts Scotland first.
As the never-ending political pendulum at westminster continues to favour one pathetic, useless piece of unionist garbage after another, the SNP looks like it will once again break the mould and be re-elected for an unprecedented fifth time in a row in 2026.
Good on us Scots for recognising the cream of the crop when we see it, even if that crop is not exactly the quality we would all wish for.
We are indeed fortunate to have the SNP to vote for.
Long may that continue.
Anon@7.58pm All hail John Swinney. What a king. I mean FM.
Delete5 Holyrood election wins in a row but no independence. Aye brilliant stuff if you are a devolutionist.
Some members of Alba would prefer direct rule from London.
DeleteNot one single person in the SNP has ever campaigned for devo max except Alex Salmond who tried and failed to get it on to the ballot paper
DeleteAlex Salmond is the only FM ever to be offered a referendum because he asked for more devolution, which is what Scotland ended up with , a tiny bit more as long as he lost
England screamed "NO chance even in your life" at Nicola Sturgeon from the moment she got the job, there's a reason for that
Stronger for Scotland. Stronger for the Union.
DeleteDr Jim at 2:03 AM
DeleteWhat load of defamatory rubbish.
Anon at 203am - are you abroad or on the razz-dazz ? Alex Salmond has died. Time ALBA ceased its nonesense.
DeleteAnon 2.03 you need to check your facts. The referendum was yes/no to independence - no option of more devolution. As to us getting a wee bit more that's because the SNP did not take up some of the devolved administration that WM was trying to give them. It's unpalatable, but it's true.
DeleteAye we know IFS, everybody's Dr Jim
DeleteSo boring IFS
Dr Jim at 2.03am are you one of these SNP people who believe a man can say he is a woman and miraculously it happens. Just trying to measure the extent of your madness.
DeleteAnon twat at 11.29am - not me at 2.55am. You are obsessed with me. You see me everywhere. It's called paranoi. Try posting something of interest, or of value, for a change. It's you who is boring and paranoid to boot.
DeleteGive it a rest IFS or anonymous, you're like a moany wee wean
DeleteWow! anon troll at 4.06am stayed up all night using his great intellect to think up that comment.
DeleteIfs, me, me, me, me , me, me
DeleteHave to agree with anon@11:29am.
DeleteIFS appears to post as anonymous at times.
Anon 821 -gie us all peace. You probably are a wee Brit Nat. The truth is it is for every person too vote the right way.
